Welcome. To open our year's adventures, we will gather on:
Tuesday, Sept. 6th, 10am-11:30am at 181 Midwood Street.
Thank you to John and Allison, for a beautiful basement and backyard within which to house our gatherings.
On Tuesday, families, you are all welcome to come. We will meet one another, play and mingle and create together. This day will be dedicated to enjoying the space together and energizing it with familial love and warmth. The intention is to help children personalize this new forum as their own. I ask (with a wink) for us all to LITERALLY breathe deeply throughout this first day as we embrace the challenging and mixed feelings that come up (for our children and ourselves) around big transitions such as this.
To facilitate easy connecting for all upon arrival, let's actually (please grin, bear it, and if you are willing) make name tags. We will be making a mural and window decorations as well so that the space takes on a welcoming and unique quality for the children to return to on other days, on their own.
If you can bring a small family photo, that would be wonderful.
If you would be willing to sing a favorite family song or diddy, that will be welcome, in the creating of our shared "culture".
If you would like to bring a suger-free treat to share with the group, that is also welcome.
Please leave personal toys home if possible. We can create a holding-box at the bottom of the stairs, outside our group's space, for personal items that children do bring if that is helpful.
With best wishes,
Audrey
